Contact Info Patriot Act Article Welcome Patriot Act Back Patriot Act's Reach Has Gone Beyond Terrorism Eric Lichtblau -The New York Times Washington DC - The Bush administration, which calls the USA Patriot Act perhaps its most essential tool in fighting terrorists, has begun using the law with increasing frequency in many criminal investigations that have little or no connection to terrorism. The government is using its expanded authority under the far-reaching law to investigate suspected drug traffickers, white-collar criminals, blackmailers, child pornographers, money launderers, spies and corrupt foreign leaders, federal officials said. Justice Department officials said they simply are using all the tools now available to them to pursue criminals, terrorists or otherwise. But critics of the administration's anti-terrorism tactics assert such use of the law is evidence the administration has sold the American public a false bill of goods, using terrorism as a guise to pursue a broader law-enforcement agenda. "Within six months of passing the Patriot Act, the Justice Department was conducting seminars on how to stretch the new wiretapping provisions to extend them beyond terror cases," Dan Dodson, a spokesman for the National Association of Criminal Defense Attorneys, told The Associated Press earlier this month. "They say they want the Patriot Act to fight terrorism, then, within six months, they are teaching their people how to use it on ordinary citizens."

85. The Electronic Discovery Library Searching and Seizing Computers and Obtaining electronic evidence in CriminalInvestigations US Department of Justice (July 2002) http://www.sbot.org/discovery_library.htm

Electronic Discovery and Computer Forensics Collection Studies indicate that a third of business documents created today never become paper records. When you consider the explosion in e-mail and other electronic communication, it's likely that most smoking gun documents never get printed out. Discovery of electronic records raises daunting issues of cost, complexity, privacy and privilege, but that's where the evidence in all cases is rapidly and inexorably moving. Computer forensics is the identification, preservation, extraction, interpretation and presentation of computer-related evidence. With an estimated 93% of the world's data being created by computer, computer forensics and related issues offers signal challenges and opportunities to the 21st century law practice.
